Meidyn's Journey Home

This is the journey, from beginning to end, of how we got our daughter home. We have not met her, she may not even be born... but she's already found a way into our hearts.

The day we've been waiting for!

We got the call today at around 2:00. Unfortunately, Chris was in a meeting so he missed the actual call but I left immediately after the call to give him the good news. We are so excited and can't wait to bring her home. She is 9 weeks old and the most beautiful little girl I've ever seen. I can't stop looking at her picture and can't wait to bring her home. It will be quite a while before we can post her pictures because we have to wait until after the rainy season for our court date.

Deanna- I just found your blog, and I totally felt for you when the other 3/7/08 family got their referral and you did not. My husband and I both said outloud, "that would be so hard" but we are so hoping we get our referral soon as well since you were the last one's we know of that was ahead of us so perhaps we will all travel together. All the best and here's to a speedy rainy season for all of us!
